Burnley vs Brentford Prediction

Brentford have had a terrible run in recent times, facing the big teams in the Premier League and also dealing with numerous injury issues. They find themselves perilously close to the relegation zone and will need to avoid dropping points against teams below them.

Burnley, meanwhile, have struggled on their return to the Premier League, especially at home. They are 10 points away from safety and with just 10 games remaining, they are set t to get relegated.

Despite their poor form, Brentford should be able to turn things around against Burnley.
